Only actual JDK release numbers should be used, if you want to reflect that an issue is relevant to an older release use a family release value: [8]{.jbs-value}, [17]{.jbs-value}.

Shouldn't you use the actual release version where the existence of the issue was detected? The above sounds to me like you are suggesting to use e.g. 8 even if the issue is actually only applicable for 8uX.
